Mr. H. 0. Benton of Jackson lias
made an arraingement for the local
Agency for the sale of real estate in
und around Jackson and adjacent
country, the pa'’ties lie represents
can do a great deal in bringing cap
ital to our section, and our people
ought to give inducements on part
of their property in order to enhance
: he value of the balance.
The sound of the “ax and pick”
speaks louder than words, and the
work of the extension goes smooth
ly along without regard to the
“grape vine Telegrams” to the con- i
tiary. Tlio first dirt was broken
yesterday morning on this part of
the line, work was begun near the
residence of Mr. Cole, and moving
towards Jackson, the work is easy
on that part of the line, and will be
completed rapidly.
Two weeks ago wo announced
that we would establish a real es
tate agency at this place and since
then wo have had about thirty thou
sand dollars worth of property con
signed to us for sale, at very rea
sonable prices, a list of this prop
erty can he seen in another column,
under the head of real estate for
sale. This is the proper course for
our people to pursue if they want
to enhance the value of their other
property.

We would remind the General
Assembly now in session, that the
iLailrpad will soon be completed to or
near Indiantoprtng^in.•
that the State has a reservo of the
real estate around these Springs;
that our Lunatic Asylum is dan
gerously crowded, IVl* applications
now filed no room for them; that
another asylum ought to be built at
once; and that there are stones
enough on the reserve to build a
house to accommodate 500 patients,
and, because of the medicinal prop
c rues of this water, it is the place
at which to locate an asylum for
our unfortunates. A word to the
wise and the good is sufficient.—

The stone work for Towaligee
bridge has been recieved bv the or
dinary and the wood work is now
going forward promptly, the bridge
will cost less than was first antici
pated and will he a magnificent
structure. Mr. Kelly the contractor
for stone work knows exactly how
to put rock together and he erected
pillars for the bridge, that will
stand until the next “great march
to the sea” or some such revelers in
destruction passes this way.
Our Ordinary says he expects to
build such a bridge at Indian Spring
and Flat Shoal on Tawaliga before
his term of office expires, and in
tends to do it without increasing
the taxes one cent. If he can do
this the voters of Butts county will
say, “well done thou good and faith

Judge J. C. Branson, a member;
of the house from Bartow county,
who has heretofore opposed the
granting of the Colo charter, has
authorized the Rome Courier to
state that the objections which he
has had to the charter are so far re
moved that he will no longer offer
any opposition to the passage' of
the bill. lie states that he was not
opposed to the charter On general
principles, having always been more
than willing for foreign capital to
increase the railroad facilities of
the state whenever it could be done
without material injury to the per
manent interests of the state. It
appears that Judge Branson had
been led to believe that Colonel
Colo had applied for tho charter tor
general purposes M speculation—
perhaps for the purpose of depre
ciating the value of the State road
in hopes of buying; but he has ev
idently become satisfied that the
ad is absolutely necessary to the
completion of the Cole system, and
that it will be rapidly completed.
A more thorough knowledge of the
bill, and a change in some of the
features of the charter, to which
Colonel Cole has agreed, have in
duced Judge Branson, the Courier
says, not only to cease his opposi
tion to the measure, but to give his
cordial support.
A DARING ROBBERY.
Our young friend Walter Darden of

other negroes and one white man,
choked down and robbed of one hun

to the ascertainment with certainty,
and one of these perhaps could be
employed. It is as little as ; coun
cil could do for the people who have
entrusted the wellfare of the town to
them, to appoint a eopimitty to
report upon the subject; their re
port it seems to me should be ex
plicit as to what streets are now
opened, and which closd upon what
streets encroachments are existing
and what one perfectly free, and
should contain a recommendation
for such action as the best interest
of the town demand. Already peo
ple have visited .the town with a
view to probable or possible invest
ment. What property holder is
there in town who can say with
any certainty how his property is
situated with refrence to the streets,
and what purchaser with the ex
pectation of improving will not de
mand to know all this before Le risks
his improvements? As valuable
as the most enthusiastic among us
may believe real estate may be
come, all know that no man will
risk encroaching on the public
streets. If our town ever becomes
anything, the streets will surely be
opened and straightened, and it will
be infinitly better to straighten them
at the begining #ian to hfcye the
improvements if made, loose their
intrinsic value by the knowledge
that this will one clay lie done? I
believe a correct plotting of the
place could be done for SIOO.OO, and
if the council has not the money,
could not the amount be raised by
subscription? It'should be raised
and the Yvbrk 'dor,e 'Now.' If its
neccsary to the advantagous sale of

any difference in our town? X. Y.
AFTER LO:\b YEARS.
A MURDERER HANGED AFTER NEARLY
SIX YEARS’ CONTEST IN TIIE COURTS.
Syracuse, August G. —Nathan Or
lando Greenfield, who was executed
Friday morning for the murder of
his wife Alice, at Orwell, Ovvego
county, October, 1875, had three
trials, the jury once disagreeing and
twice finding him guilty, and three
death sentences and five stay Sand
reprieves. Friday the formal exe
cution took place, five years, nine
months and six days after the crime.
After so many escapes from the
gallows, Greenfield was confident
he would not be hanged, and gave
up hope of commutation only when
under the gallows. Vigerous efforts
to gain the governor’s interferrenc**-
were in vain. The execution took
place in the presence of two hun
dred persons, officials, witness and
press representatives. The priso
ner was cool and unconcerned. Be
ing asked if he had anything to say
he replied: “Nothing.” The trap
was sprung at 11 o’clock. A scene
took place just before the execu
tion. The pi isoner’s brother insist
ed on standing by him till the last,
declaring him to be innocent. This
the sheriff refused as unlawful.
Greenfield had an effecting inter
view with his brother and cousin
this morning, and assured them of
his innocence and readiness to die.
The chaplain of the prison held re
ligious exercises and implored the
prisoner to confess his guilt. He
protested his innocence. In his cell
he prayed fervently for God’s mer
cy upon himself and his enemies
and those who perjured themselves
in his trials. “Thou knowest, oh
God, that I am innocent/’ was his
declaration. He went calmly to the
scaffold, supported by the officers,
■who noticed no tremor or faltering.
Under the gallows, asked by the
sheriff if lie had any confession r> ~
statement to make. “I U ;<
to make. As Christ is goon, iyi£

NO PROMISES FOR THE FU
i TURE.
Three years ago-a solitary horse
man might have been..seen lugging
a quantity of burgeois type up
stairs, and at the same time making
an effort to stand the railroad com
pany off for the frieght. A land
lord was found who was willing to
allow a pious example to count in
toward the rent, if the the balance
was paid invariably in advance, and
the office was opened. A 2-shilling
tin sign was procured, and the pop
ulace was informed that Peck’s Sun
was going to< try and build up a
business here, if nobody had any
particular objections. * * * r
Our business is satisfactory, We
mention these things because there
is nothing else to write about, and
because it is customary for papers
to be tooting their horns once in
three years. However, there is one
thing that we won’t do, and that is
to make promises of future excel
lence. We doubt if the paper will
be any better the next year than it
has been the past. We have buckl
ed right down to business and per
spired freely to ihdke it as good as
it has been, and w6rke(J tijl our
head has ached as though we had
been to a caucus. We are not go
ing to make great improvements,
regardless of expense, ? We shall
not employ some of the best writers
in this country, and the circtfiafion
will not be the largest largest that
ever was, and it will not tjq ’the best
paper to advertise in that there is
anywhere. Neither will it be the
funniest paper in the world. It will
simply try to be so pleasant, and
entertaining, and good natured, and
happy that you will get your 5 cents’
worth, or if- you don’t you can sell
it to somebody for 3 cents after you
read it, and come out even. If peo
ple advertise in it we shall try to
have them get their money ’s worth,
if we are compelled to go around
personally and drum up customers
for them. It will stand by its friends
like a burr to a boy’s trousers, and
try not to be to funny.—
Peck’s (Milwaukee) Sun.
ADDRESS OF DR/'CURRY.
We give below an extract from the
address of Dr. J. L.'Curry, general agent
of the Peabody fund, to the general As
sembly of Georgia, which was a master
ly price of thought and eloquence.
T#er<sr are 804,000 white and 814,-
000:colored illiterate voters in the
south. The education of the voter
is the greatest question of the age,
overriding all questions of tariff and
railroads, and all questions save
civil service reform of which it is an
important element. [Applause]
It seems to me that your clocks
run faster here than they do in Vir
ginia. [Laughter and cries of “Go
on.”] The speaker jpaid a fine com
pliment to Dr. Orr. He said we were
at the university of Georgia togeth
er. He was then as now, for his
skill in mathematics, his liberal
culture and his unswerving integ
rity. [Applause.] I expect ho wish
es that I would leave what may
seem to be glittering generalities
and come to practical thoughts on
the common school system. The
men who in the twilight of this cen
tury, laid the foundations of the
Btate university, my own alma
j mater, and of Mercer, and of Em
j ory and of Wesleyan female college,
| did more for the state than all the
I governors and courts and iegisla
! tures Georgia ever had [Applause.]
II do not undervalue your work. I
cut it high. But one step higher
1 go and there I place the work of
these men. rApplause] I would
like o 3*fc A of you as between
man ar ■ ' , “what good did ig
norance e~.ee cio ?” No ignorant pe or
pie were ever prosperous. Igno*
ranee is the parent of sloth and
vice. A master mechanic told me
in Richmond that he was compell
ed to give the highest places to for
eign workmen be cause they are bet
ter educated than our own labor.
You study political economy and
think of the production and uses of
wealth, and I state a mere platitude
when 1 say that the highest system
is that which produces most and
expends least. And shall we talk of
soft or hard money, labor and capi
tal. rent and tariff, without consid
ering the great question of educa
n. I have not a copy of The
Constitution but I will state that
the New York Herald rolls off twen
ty-five miles ol of paper and not a
Land touches it, for it is done by
machenery made and regulated by
skilled labor. There are seventeen
distinct inventions used in making
shoes. The real issue iathis:. Gen
eral education is a condition on
which the success of man, the peace
of society and the safety of gevern
:• out depend. This can only be had
by r. system of public schools. Thu:
is the. only means that has ever been
found to accomplish this end. A
cysiem of free schools, graded and
open to ad, is the duty cf every
state [Applause.] A good system
involves a state superintendent, a
county huptsiintendent, and good]
teachers. You eaiVt run it without]
money. Your state superintendent
uwu In h*f? ye% to Icaui that the
monef "has ever
been expended anywhere with as
good results as in Georgia. To make
an efficient system you must have
paid countv-'superintendents. You
need one million* dollars annually
tor your schools in. Georgia. A
million thus expended would s*ve
itself in decreased expenses of jails
and prosecutions, and would in
crease' the wealth of Georgia beyond
all computation. Atlanta educates
4,000 children., in . public schools
cheaper than she educated one-third
ot that number in private schools.
You. want public schools,: not to run
three months,'; but nine or ten
months. * '
The city of Richmond once paid
an Average ot s4§( to’educate pupils
in private schools and now pays on
ly sl3 for pupils; in public schools.
Your school superintendent, your
governor, your judges die,' but the
state of Georgia never dies, and you
want your school system as perma
nent &a your office of governor.
Public schools are the only
of universal* education. That is
possible, for in Saxony the census
failed to fin'd a single person over
ten years old that could not read.
What aU our schools? 1 ’Sunday
schools and secular schools need, is
improved methods of teaching. Up
in Virginia they think that anybody
can teach school or go to l congress.
[Laughter. [ As I have‘done both
you can apply the remark to me.
[Langhter.J You need trained
teachers. You train men to law and
to the pulpit. In the name ol hu
manity, in the liable of childhood,
why not trainman! to teach? In
the child is a host of undeveloped
possibilities. If you want a horseshoe!
dfi you send hiffi to a lawyer? • Do
you go to a blacksmith to have teeth
pulled? You send to men skilled
in those arts! 1 You stand at Tallu
lah and think it grander than Ni
agara. You stand on Stone moun
tain and catch its glorious view.
But a grander thing than these is
that boy’s head. (Pointing 1 to one
of the pages') [Appiauue.]
I am' not very old —not quite as
old as my friend Jackson and Craw
ford, but I used to pass through
Atlanta before a free had been cut
down. I came hack and when I see
it now I say. “This is great,” but
that boy is greater. [Applause.]
For his mind is capable of expan
sion and development as long as
there are mysteries in the universe,
as long a k there are infinitudes in
the Godhead. [Applause.] Com
modore Maury sat in his study in
New York and constructed the
charts which shortened the voyage
to Australia thirty days. That is
the power of concentrated thought.
What we want is some Maury in
education, like Orr or someone
else, to improve the charts of edu
cation. A man is more than his
trade or his occupation. He is
more than a blacksmith o? a doc
tor, or a lawyer, or an editor. His
occupation is only a segment of an
infinite circle. Man is a father, a
voter, a citizen. He has relations
to God and eternity. ‘He meets
thee only as he is educated and
marches from just above the brute
to be not only a little lower than
the angels, but to be a partaker of
the nature of God himself. [Ap
plause.] Asa Georgian, as a south
ern man, as an American citizen, as
a Christian man, in the name of
the uneducated masses, white and
black. I beg you to rise to the
height of this argument, and to make
G eorgia .in her manhood and her
moral and mental resources in re
ality as she is in name, the empire
state of the south. [Applause.]

AN APPEAL FOR CHARITY.
Its a very sad thing for us to publish
the fact, that we have in our midst <1
cage of actual human suffering. We ah
lude to old man Wiley Dickerson. Close

or deny it if we can, the truth reran ins it

what excuses we may suggest that, uld

may say, ’‘if lie liail itotod vricoly in hifi

his old age, admit this to be a fact, and
the truth remains the same, he needs
the help of Ids fellowman, will we i ;ru e
the appeal of suffering humanity? Will
the young men and ladies "Who are en
joying the luxuries of plenty of to A
worlds goods, and robust health, stop
fer a moment and think of tnV horn*

the essentials to comfort? 25 or 0 etri

Miss Joe Varner, or Mrs. Collier, or Mrs.
